Description

Steam reformer for producing synthesis gas
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a steam reformer for converting a hydrocarbon-rich gas into a synthesis gas rich in carbon monoxide and hydrogen using steam.
The invention also relates to a process for producing a synthesis gas rich in carbon monoxide and hydrogen by steam reforming of a hydrocarbon-rich gas.
Background
For converting gaseous hydrocarbons with steam into a mixture of primarily carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H)2) Steam reformers of the forming synthesis gas are known. The steam reforming process is described schematically in Ullmann, section 2.2 of chapter "Gas Production (Gas Production)" by "Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry", sixth edition, volume 15. The different types of tubular reactors used in the process are described schematically in section 2.2.3 of the same volume. The chapter shows a tubular reactor in which the burner is mounted on the top or bottom or side wall of the reformer shell. The present invention relates to a reformer in which burners are mounted in the top or bottom of a housing. In this type, as they are shown in fig. 6 of the ullmann section, the burner mounted variant of the stove top has been accepted basically so far. In this variant, all feed lines, i.e. the line for feeding fuel gas to the burner and the product gas line for the reforming tubes, are arranged on the furnace roof, and all discharge lines, e.g. for discharging from the reforming tubesThe burner off-gas and product gas conduits are arranged at the bottom of the reformer housing. It is particularly advantageous to discharge the product gases at the bottom of the enclosure because their temperature is in the range of 900 degrees celsius and after leaving the reformer they pass through a waste heat boiler for heat recovery. Since the waste heat boiler is too heavy, it can only be located at ground level, the withdrawal of the product gas at the bottom of the reformer housing makes the piping path to the waste heat boiler short and thus there is also little heat loss in the piping.
On the other hand, the installation of the product gas line and the fuel gas line on the top of the reformer housing is disadvantageous for several reasons. These lines impair the accessibility of the reforming tubes, which can only be exchanged through the roof of the furnace. Furthermore, the furnace roof must be safely accessible and accessible to personnel for maintenance of the burner and for inspection of the pipes.
The arrangement of the product gas line on the top of the reformer housing is particularly disadvantageous where the reformer tubes have integrated heat exchange between the product gas and the product gas. Such reforming tubes are described, for example, in document DE102011118217a 1. In these reforming tubes, the product gas outlet is arranged on the same side as the product gas inlet, and therefore the product gas line must also be arranged on the roof of the reformer housing, whereby the arrangement for feeding the product gas to the waste heat boiler and the waste heat boiler becomes more difficult.
Disclosure of Invention
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a steam reformer which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. These objects are achieved by a steam reformer according to the features of independent claim 1 and independent claim 2 of an alternative aspect of the invention.
Steam reformer according to the invention:
a steam reformer, comprising:
-a combustion chamber having a bottom, a ceiling and side walls delimiting the combustion chamber,
catalyst tubes arranged in a plurality of rows with an integrated recirculation of the product gas, which catalyst tubes pass through the bottom of the combustion chamber, wherein the catalyst tubes are arranged such that the tube ports for the product gas lines and the product gas lines are located at the ends of the catalyst tubes projecting downwards from the combustion chamber,
a feed line for the evolved gases and a collection line for the product gases, which extend below the bottom of the combustion chamber,
a burner for heating the catalyst tubes, which burner is mounted in the bottom of the combustion chamber and is directed vertically upwards into the combustion chamber,
-feed pipes extending below the bottom of the combustion chamber, each feed pipe for feeding air and fuel gas to the burner,
-an opening mounted in the ceiling of the combustion chamber for discharging burner off-gas,
-a channel extending above the top plate of the combustion chamber for discharging burner off-gas.
Steam reformer according to an alternative configuration of the invention:
a steam reformer, comprising:
-a combustion chamber having a bottom, a ceiling and side walls delimiting the combustion chamber,
catalyst tubes arranged in a plurality of rows, the catalyst tubes passing through the bottom and the ceiling of the combustion chamber, wherein the catalyst tubes are arranged such that the tube ports for the product gas tubes are located at the ends of the catalyst tubes projecting downwards from the combustion chamber and the tube ports for the product gas tubes are located at the ends of the catalyst tubes projecting upwards from the combustion chamber,
-a feed line for the evolved gases extending below the bottom of the combustion chamber,
-a collecting line for product gas extending above the ceiling of the combustion chamber,
a burner for heating the catalyst tubes, which burner is mounted in the bottom of the combustion chamber and is directed vertically upwards into the combustion chamber,
-feed pipes extending below the bottom of the combustion chamber, each feed pipe for feeding air and fuel gas to the burner,
-an opening mounted in the ceiling of the combustion chamber for discharging burner off-gas,
-a channel extending above the top plate of the combustion chamber for discharging burner off-gas.
In a reformer according to claim 1, one feature is the use of catalyst tubes with integrated recirculation of the product gas, as described in the unexamined german application DE102011118217a 1. In this technique, the inlets for the product and product gases are located at the same end of the catalyst tubes. The collecting duct for this case can therefore be installed completely below the bottom of the reformer housing.
In a reformer according to the second independent claim 2, on the other hand, one is characterized in that integrated recirculating catalyst tubes without product gas are used. Catalyst tubes project from the bottom and top plate of the reformer housing, the evolved gas is introduced into the catalyst tubes at the bottom, and the product gas is collected and discharged from the catalyst tubes through the roof of the housing.
One advantage of the reformer according to the invention is that the withdrawal of burner off-gas is achieved at the top of the reformer furnace, i.e. in the direction of convection of the off-gas. In this way, compressor and blower energy may be saved, as it is easier to extract combustor exhaust gases.
Furthermore, according to the invention, the arrangement of the feed and discharge lines for the educts, the products, the combustion air and the fuel gas at or below the reformer bottom provides a very symmetrical and compact structure of the combustion chamber, thereby reducing heat losses and fuel requirements.
It is also advantageous to have better accessibility of the reformer tubes through the roof than in conventional reformers, so that they can be unloaded towards the roof and exchanged more easily in the case of use. The same applies to the possibly required exchange of catalyst in the tubes, wherein it is advantageous to remove deactivated catalyst from above, for example by suction, and new catalyst can likewise be introduced from above by injecting it into the reforming tubes.
Since the coupling of the product line to downstream equipment, such as a waste heat boiler, is very short, the risk of metal dust corrosion is reduced according to the invention, in addition to the reduction of heat losses.
According to the invention, the arrangement of the burner on the bottom of the combustion chamber makes it also easy to access in the use situation. Furthermore, the bottom plate absorbs the load of the burner-fuel gas-air supply system, releasing the reformer top accordingly.
By the arrangement of the passable intermediate plane between the bottom of the combustion chamber and the device mounting base, it is ensured that the region of the installation arranged at or below the bottom of the combustion chamber is accessible.
The invention also comprises a process for the catalytic conversion of a hydrocarbon-containing gas into a synthesis gas containing hydrogen and carbon oxides by means of steam, which process comprises the following process steps:
a) providing a hydrocarbon-containing gas and steam,
b) producing an evolved gas by mixing the gas and the steam,
c) converting the evolved gas into a synthesis gas comprising hydrogen and carbon oxides by reforming in a steam reformer according to claims 1-5 under reforming conditions,
d) the synthesis gas is discharged for further processing outside the process.
Reforming conditions are understood to be the operating conditions of the reformer unit known to the person skilled in the art, which ensure a technically and economically favourable degree of conversion of the feedstock into synthesis gas components.
Preferred aspects of the invention
A preferred aspect of the invention is that the integrated recirculation of the product gas in the catalyst tubes is achieved by heat exchangers which are each integrated into a tube, via which heat exchange is achieved between the product gas and the product gas flowing in the catalyst tubes. This technique is also described in the unexamined german application DE102011118217a 1. In this way, heat is transferred from the hot product gas to the evolved gas, thereby saving heating energy and the conversion of heating and evolved gas is accelerated.
Another preferred aspect of the invention is that the catalyst tubes are equipped with closable openings at their upper ends for exchanging catalyst. Through these openings, the used catalyst can be removed from the tube, for example by suction, and can be filled with new catalyst.
Another preferred aspect of the invention is that the top plate of the combustion chamber comprises an opening through which the detached catalyst tubes can be removed from the combustion chamber towards the top. Since the burner is installed at the bottom of the reformer according to the present invention, a space is obtained on the top of the reformer, thereby facilitating the exchange of the catalyst tubes through the top of the reformer.

Collecting lines for the evolved gases 4 and for the product gases 5 extend parallel to the catalyst tube bank below the bottom of the reformer. In the reformer bottom, the burners 6 are arranged in four rows to the left and right, and between the catalyst tube rows. The burners 6 are arranged so that their flames 7 are directed vertically upwards into the reformer housing 2. Collecting lines for fuel gas 8 and combustion air (not shown) also extend parallel to the burner rows below the bottom of the reformer housing 2. The burner flue gas 9 enters the flue gas channel 10 through an opening in the ceiling of the reformer housing 2. Four exhaust gas channels 10 are arranged on the housing parallel to the catalyst tube rows.
The steam reformer 1 as shown in fig. 2 corresponds to the aspect of the invention according to claim 2. The collecting line for the product gas 5 is here located above the ceiling of the reformer housing 2.
